Act I
The challenge
This isn’t a course you binge, it’s a paid program meant to be walked one step at a time. The interesting part was enforcing that: modules that unlock only when the last is done, progress that survives across sessions, and access gated cleanly behind a Stripe purchase.
Act II
What I built
A paid, guided self-clarity program built inside Blitztools. Seventeen sequential writing modules across four vectors unlock one at a time, gated by a Stripe purchase, and the whole thing resolves into an 839-line "war map" of goals and milestones.

Progress + sequential unlock
Upserts with a 10k-character guard and Postgres-trigger rollups back a tracker that unlocks a section only once every prior one is complete.

Stripe entitlement pipeline
A webhook route syncs products and prices and records purchases; a product guard and an access layout gate every single module behind ownership.

The war map
It all resolves into an 839-line war map: three annual goals, each broken into 3, 6, and 9-month milestones and four twelve-task timeframes, persisted per user.
